With True Blood (based on the Southern Vampire Mysteries books) and A Game of Thrones (based on the same named series) both doing so well on HBO, I wanted to suggest three more book series that I think would make incredible TV series.

– The Wheel of Time- Hundreds of characters, a great story and 14 1000-plus page books worth of material to draw from.

– Anno-Dracula- A series in which vampires have become common in the world. The series is full of characters from other sources as well as fascinating original ones. Â The first book covers the time of Jack The Ripper, the second covers World War I and the third covers 1950’s Italy.

– Sonja Blue- A vampire series that began with the novel Sunglasses After Dark that features a young lady turned into a vampire and her awesome (and often violent) exploits.

Today I was thinking about movies that I like that I KNOW are terrible. Â What compels me to watch these cinematic monstrosities? Â Oftentimes it is just a nostalgic feeling. Â As a kid I had no idea these movies were as bad as they are.

– Howard The Duck- The movie that made me write this post. Â It’s bad. Â It is the complete antithesis of the source material. Â But I like it. Plus it’s the one movie that makes me lust after Lea Thompson.

– Joe Dirt- This movie operates on the principle that if you watch something on basic cable enough times you will eventually enjoy it. Â I enjoy this movie against my will.

– Jackie Brown- It’s the one Quentin Tarantino movie that I KNOW is terrible. But it’s got two things I like: Samuel L. Jackson saying all his dialogue very loudly and Bridget Fonda in a bikini top.

So most of you will realize that today’s comic is a reference to the advertising campaign of Chik-Fil-A. Â Chik-Fil-A is one of the absolute greatest fast food chains in the world. Â Their chicken is hands down the best. Â What I DON’T like is that every Chik-Fil-A is closed on Sunday. And of course it’s exactly Sunday that you always want a delicious Chik-Fil-A pack of nuggets, waffle fries and lemonade. Â Mmmm lemonade…

Having witnessed the awesomeness that was ‘X-Men:First Class’ I got to think about cool movie cameos in superhero movies. Here are the five best.

5. Stan Lee (every marvel movie)- Has cameod as a postman, a clueless pedestrian, a guy driving a truck and a guy who drinks tainted juice. Every Marvel movie now has me scanning to Stan The Man’s cameo.

4. Robert Downey Jr. (The Incredible Hulk)- Cameod as his ‘Iron Man’ character Tony Stark at the end of this one. Â Just one of the small things they did to build up the Marvel Movie Universe.

3. Cillian Murphy (The Dark Knight)- A small part as his ‘Batman Begins’ villain The Scarecrow. Â This movie already had tons of great performances but it was nice to see Murphy just the same. He is an immensely entertaining actor.

2. Hugh Jackman (X-Men:First Class)- Reprising the role of Wolverine just long enough to drop an F-Bomb on Magneto and Professor X.

1. Samuel L. Jackson (Iron Man)- The cameo was after the credits. Â Jackson cameoed as Nick Fury, super spy extraordinaire. Â The ‘Ultimates’ comic series had already portrayed Fury as looking like Jackson so this was a real treat. Â The best part? He came back for part 2 and will be in Avengers.
